Latest house prices for West Runton, Cromer

West Runton sits on the North Norfolk coast, positioned between the larger towns of Sheringham and Cromer. It is distinct for being one of the few villages in the area with its own railway station on the Bittern Line, providing a direct link to Norwich. Geographically, the village is defined by its high ground to the south - part of the Cromer Ridge - and its unique shoreline, where the chalk reef creates some of the best rock-pooling in the county. Historically, the village gained international recognition in 1990 when the remains of a 600,000-year-old steppe mammoth were discovered in the cliffs, marking one of the most significant archaeological finds in the UK. Today, it remains a quieter alternative to its neighbours, maintaining a functional village centre with a local shop, a pub, and a social club, all within walking distance of the beach and the wooded common land of Beeston Regis Heath.
